Thank you for support

Hey,

this is very much possible, since it is taking two ferries to get from Napoli to Messina and then back to the mainland.

You can avoid ferries, but you’ll have to use a POST request with the corresponding avoid_features-option set:

 curl -X POST \
  'https://api.openrouteservice.org/v2/directions/cycling-road' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8' \
  -H 'Accept: application/json, application/geo+json, application/gpx+xml, img/png; charset=utf-8' \
  -H 'Authorization: your_api' \
  -d '{"coordinates":[[14.307729827851423,40.866554241206956],[15.647307010135156,38.111674373779195]],"options":{"avoid_features":["ferries"]}}'

Best regards
